Dolphin Coast – Photos

One of the reasons we ride is to see interesting landscapes and beautiful locations. Thank you Verna for sharing these truly impressive images from the dam - and those skies 😮 - made during today’s ride! ... See more

On our world famous Portuguese Lusitanos, enjoy this coastal ride which travels over unspoilt, deserted beaches and pristine countryside.

Riding through the protected sanctuary at the mouth of the river, Rio Sado, you will find endless miles of sandy beaches, interrupted only by small fishing villages and lagoons. Enjoy an excursion to the mouth of the river to observe Bottlenose dolphins in their natural environment. Discover the quiet tranquility of the pine forests as you ride towards the shores of the Lagoon of St André. The ride ends with superb canters over the rolling hills of the Serra Grândola.

This is day 5 of our ride. It is beautiful here. The terrain changes many times. I am very glad that I came fit for long long trots and gallops. My horse is well trained for this and able to relax on a long rein when walking. Migel has this trip well organized and accommodations are lovely. It’s been wonderful. Looking forward to another day.read more

i recommend absolutely everything as it is 5 star all the way. You will not go wrong. Migel is simply the best in every way. I would choose to ride with him every chance i got. He is a true professional.
Dennis is also a GEM. Great cook and a huge help in every way. Not a bad card player either.
Raides Vicentinos is very fortunate to have them as employees.read more

This holiday is amazing! We had torrential rain, hail, wind and even thunder but that didn’t matter it’s such a good trip. The hotels are beautiful, scenery breathtaking and food delicious. The horses are superb .. beautifully cared for and so happy in their work. Everyone is super friendly and you are made to feel very welcome even by the villagers who come out to give you a wave as you pass! I cannot recommend this trip highly enough!read more
